I'm pretty sure that it isn't deprecated, but I believe thatthere was some discussion of possibly deprecating it. Again, a list of the exact list of features which is currently supported but intended for deprecation would be good but has never materialized. They usually don't even need -d to compile, so you have to have been paying attention to the newsgroups and remember the way such discussions went if you want to have any idea of what they are. And even then, you can't be completely sure. - Jonathan M Davis
